Colin Norforth arrived in Toronto from Dublin, Ireland during mid January 2011, a hired bodyguard/bouncer he posted flyers looking for work. His fuzzy memory did not help him fully understand just why he was here. Two weeks passed until Tuesday, January 29th 2011 he received a call from a man named Douglas Veratti in response to one of his flyers. Quickly telling Colin that one Charles Tucker Masonforth would like to interview him for a possible job. Agreeing to be at the Estate by noon on Wednesday the 30th and excited at the prospect of employment, Colin used the internet to do some research into who Charles Masonforth might be and was eyes wide open to find out he was a well known Billionaire. His invention of “Prismatic Cell” revolutionized the computer, cell phone and hand-held industries not to mention created the base frame work for what might one day be holographics.

Colin was prompt and after some amazing sights and “virtual” eye candy he ended up first in a personal diner on the property where he met Charles face to face, they had brief conversation and much to Colin’s surprise Charles challenged him to five rounds of boxing in the ring. Colin feeling a bit sheepish about fighting his possible boss wasn’t sure if he should let him win or what. Some last minute “encouragement” from Peter Mason (Patchy) one of two guards he encountered answered the questions he was asking himself. The bout lasted only three rounds with Charles eating most of the punches and after a unintentional hook sent Charles flying and flopping over to only get up from what seemed to be the end of the fight. Colin followed the guards advice to use a certain combination to end the match and teach Charles to stop making the same errors. Colin timed the shots well but with too much power and he knocked Charles out cold. Once he was revived and able to stand he offered Colin the job, asked where he currently lived and offered him a house on the grounds. Colin made fast friends of the two guards and earned the respect of Charles in the process. He entered his new three story pad to find a boxing trophy waiting on the mantle a newtech cell phone and after a brief meeting with a badly bruised Charles has learned that he has an important item to retrieve
